Due to changes in the insurance industry and the current business climate, Baer Field Speedway is announcing the following changes for 2012:

CREDIT/DEBIT CARDS: We are happy to announce that we have a deal with a new supplier and will NOT be adding a convenience fee to credit and/or debit card transactions.

UPDATED - JANUARY 4, 2012

NO GRILLS OR OPEN FIRES IN THE PITS: Our insurance carrier (K & K Insurance) has deemed that open fires and/or grills pose a serious potential safety hazard in the pit area. Therefore, the only open fire and/or grill permitted in the pit area will be that of the Speedway concession stand.

GRANDSTAND COOLER POLICY: Based on changes in our insurance policy and a letter from the Indiana Alcoholic Beverage Commission; we will be strictly limiting the size and content of coolers in the grandstand in 2012. Effective immediately, coolers will be limited to no more than the standard “6-pack” size. Anything larger must be left in the parking area. Also, as per the terms of our 2012 Indiana Liquor License, we can no longer allow anyone to bring their own beer, liquor, or any other alcoholic beverages into the Speedway grandstand area. We apologize for any inconvenience.

RAIN CHECK POLICY: Effective with the start of the 2012 season, the rain check policy will be as follows: In the event of a rain-shortened program for which rain checks are issued, those rain checks will be honored for the next scheduled event.
